sometimes, when i hear your laugh
it's as if i know this time
we got it right
we got everything right

god is smiling and
we are smiling
and the angels are dancing
and suddenly we are dancing
too

i need you to know
you are the holiest war i ever fought in
you are
the only battle i ever won
the only peaceful resolution
the only eternal ceasefire
the only calm after the storm
the only peace i ever felt

i promise
to love you so soft
that even the angels
become jealous,
to love you so long
that god
will rethink the word "eternal"
